What is an Artistic Genius?
A genius in art is one who can consistently channel divine inspiration into their work, creating pieces that resonate with the human spirit.
Thanks Splatshot for making me discover this great movie
Lou Adler produced and directed the 1978 film "Up In Smoke", an absolute Classic. IMO the Car Scene is the funniest scene ever recorded. Linked below is a lot more of that scene. Tears of laughter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HuYeQi4wB_k

Who wants to develop?
Who wears a mask over his hands?

Does this imply that the artist is not fully in control of their creative process. "Life" I take it as being an external force using the artist as a vessel of artistic expression.
If metaphorically the artist hands are masked and rely on an external force to express creativity through them, (as suggested) excluding ones psyche and experiences can said "one" truly call themselves an artist?
I choose to interpret Nietzsche as saying "man regardless of his circumstance in life redeems his being through his creative works"
Making a mark that validates his existence.

I'll just start with a Bourbon on the rocks first and work my way up!
Cool GΒ², see ya when you get as *high* as I am
Did you know Bourbon can be used to enhance the flavor of other beverages, such as wine or... more bourbon.
"One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer" George Thorogood, 1977
